Researchers have used gene therapy to partially reprogram the brain cells that store memories in aging mice, reversing signs ...

After treatment, the mice’s memories were essentially shunted back into a younger state. The researchers found that reprogrammed engrams displayed molecular behavior of more youthful cells. Using a ...

Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

Aging doesn’t have to mean losing your past. Scientists have found a way to "reprogram" specific memory-holding neurons, restoring youthful learning and recall in mice.

In Greek mythology, the goddess Eos falls in love with Tithonus, a mortal prince of Troy. She asks Zeus to grant him ...

Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their ...

Scientists reverse eye cell aging with ER-100 gene therapy that reprograms retinal neurons to younger states, offering hope for glaucoma and vision loss.

Can cells be made biologically younger? A new, high profile clinical trial aims to find out. The idea of reversing aging and immortality has long lived in myths and lore, or at the edge of science ...

The U.S. government has entered a partial shutdown after Congress failed to meet a deadline of midnight on Friday to complete work on a spending package to prevent funding from running out across ...

BOSTON, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Life Biosciences, Inc., (“Life Bio”) a biotechnology company pioneering cellular rejuvenation therapies to reverse and prevent multiple diseases of aging, ...
